A Day in the Life...

Date Night

~ 'Wait... please wait don't go!' He keeps walking. 'Wait we need you please don't go; we need you!!' Running toward him she can't seem to reach him. 'Abby needs you; she can't do it alone...' He turns around... 'Nigel... Numbuh One!!!' He fades...~

Abby awakens with a start, breathing hard in a cold sweat. Looking around she spots Hoagie sleeping.

'Whoo, it was just a dream. Nigel, you fool...'

Abby looks at her watch, 06:00 in the morning.

'Ugh it's way too early fo dis, but guess Abby gone get up and shower.'

Hoagie turns over. 'Hmm...she had that dream again... it's been years since she had it, hopefully she isn't stressing too much. Guess I'll let her be, she didn't wake me this time, must not have been too bad this time.' He rolls over and goes back to sleep

'Abby had that crazy dream again, can't believe it. Abby thought she got ova dat. Guess a girl neva really gets ova losin a friend.' She sighs, 'Must be all the partyin...must be gettin ta Abby.'

Stepping out of the shower and putting a towel around her, she comes and sits in a chair facing the window.

'Nigel, where are you? Please come back. Neva though Abby would miss ya like dis.'

Hoagie slips up behind her putting his arms around her and kisses her forehead.

"Is everything alright my love? It happened again, didn't it?"

Sighing she answers, "Yes sugah it did... you don't think Abby thinkin too much do ya? Abby knows it's been a while, but it still gets to Abby ya know?"

"It is okay Sweet pea; I know you miss him we all do. I know you and Wally took it the hardest when he left. He'll be back; we know this, just wait you'll see." He kisses her and holds her close

"Thanks, Hoags, what would Abby do without ya baby?"

He laughs, "Ha-ha, well for one... freeze." He looks at her covering her with her towel. "If I, wasn't you'd probably have gone crazy." He winks

Abby laughs "Well aint dat da truth, Abby needs someone ta take da edge off." She kisses him and gives him a hug.

Abby got dressed as Hoagie laid back in the bed. Down the stairs she went to get breakfast. To her surprise she isn't alone.

"Hey Abigail, didn't think anyone was up dis early, coffee?"

"Thanks honey, two sugahs, that'll wake Abby right up. Why are you up so early girl, didn't you get in late?"

"Oh...uh I couldn't really sleep, just thinking you know...how about yourself?"

"Abby couldn't sleep, so she just decided ta make it an early one. What's keepin you up girl? You know you can tell Abby."

Rachel sighs, "Well, I met this guy last night..."

'Oh, here it goes.' Abby smiles

"He was so... so... charming, magnificent...brilliant. I've never met a man such him, and what a perfect gentleman he is... he just so... wow..."

Abby Chuckles "Hello, hey... earth ta Rachel... mmm mmm mmm, girl you got it bad. How much time did you spend with Mista Perfect? Cuz he got yo mind gone."

Dreamily she replies "Just half the day, we met sometime in the afternoon at the park. He was like an angel that just appeared from the heavens."
